Over 100 school districts in Minnesota are participating in the “Be the Light” movement and the City of Crookston and the Crookston School District will team up to turn the lights on Jim Karn Baseball Field at the Ray Ecklund/Highland Complex on Monday, April 6. The lights will be turned on at 8:20 p.m. for 20 minutes. The 20 minutes honors the class of 2020.
They are asking people to turn on their porch lights to show the students we are thinking of them.
The “Be the Light” movement is a symbol of hope, and a reminder that people are thinking of the students, even when they aren’t in the school or participating in their activities. Over 140 Minnesota schools are participating in the “Be The Light”, movement in a sign of community spirit and pride.
Governor Tim Walz said in his State of the State address on Sunday night – “What you are doing matters. Your sacrifice is keeping people safe…Someday when you have children of your own, you’ll tell them about this moment in history and what you and your neighbors did to help.”
